Song Production Information
Wac
Well, it's give-and-take. No rest for the notechart creator. I'm Wac.
Regards from Animelo 2. beatmania's notecharts are popular among IIDX players. Pay attention to the ending! In 4thStyle.
Now, about FANTASY. I'm sure many people have heard the original song, it's a super famous song by EARTH WIND&FIRE.
wac hasn't been involved in the IIDX series since 2ndStyle, but I'm secretly happy to be in charge of an Earth cover, following from Brazilian Rhyme during that time. (Or rather, I took over from the mustache man. He wanted to do Kin-chan (Kinnikuman)'s song in Animelo, so I guess it's alright)
To the young people who don't know the original song, by all means, please listen to the Earth version. It's hot. Anyways, it's in space.
By the way, the original album, not the best of, also includes Brazilian Rhyme. It's a bargain.
Now, let's discuss the notechart. It's the DANCE EXPRESS Hi-Speed version, so it's very fast and difficult, but I consciously created them to be gentle to people... when I said that, KAGE kept asking me "can you clear it?".
Yes, I still couldn't clear it. I'll try very hard to practice it, so please forgive me.
By the way, the mustache man is attached to everything. He's weird.
It doesn't matter, but I went to do karaoke with dj TAKA, dj nagureo, and the sound data analyzers the other day, and they said "you were in charge of it" and forced me to sing FANTASY (the original song), which was disastrous.
The lyrics don't appear like in DDR or Animelo, but let's all sing it, too. During the game. That's impossible.

VJ GYO
Of all the music I've heard, with all due respect, I haven't heard any EARTH WIND&FIRE before, and even when Wac told me that it was a cover of their super famous song, I couldn't recognize it.
But after listening to this song, I started to think it was really nice~ (maybe it was easy to listen to from the Eurobeat arrangement).
Even though it feels painful and depressing, if you keep on wishing... many emotional things come to my mind during such situations.
